Some are of the opinion that the future of the earth is dark but Sri Aurobindo strongly believes that human society is moving towards a brighter destiny. His appeal for the cooperation of all for descent of Supramental consciousness. No need for old customs in this grand journey.

It gives the impression that Dayananda came after Vivekananda. Overlooking all that happened before the latter is also a blind spot. Ideally, the review should start with Chaitanya.

From the psychoanalytical perspective, Nitish Kumar said about himself more than what he said by way of advising others. Discussion on sex thoughts in old age is a rarity and should equally draw attention as his reported comments. No one should be prevented to speak his mind.

Yeah in the discussion one did get the impression that Dayananda came after Vivekananda. Perhaps the discussion could have even started with Ram Mohan Roy to show how Christianity impacted Hindu society & the thoughts of its leaders 

Swami Dayananda & Roy's assertion that monotheist thought was present in Hindu texts & polytheism being the corruption of the original thought is perhaps the effect of contact with the missionary

When you suppress the truth by banning lectures, seminars and discussions, it means you are afraid of free and fair debates to help people decide what is right 

You have lost the debate even before it started. When both sides are heard without noise it is a true debate

The beauty of Indian democracy is that your social status, caste, privilege and educational qualifications do not determine your ability to be in public life. The voter chooses who he wants to be represented by. Drop the arrogance and petulance @PrashantKishor
